Political Spectrum Quiz

Discover your place on the political spectrum! This quiz will
let you know where you fall on social liberties, economics, foreign policy--
even the culture war.

Below you will see a series of statements
that you must agree or disagree with. Based on your responses we will place you
on a graph--also termed a political compass--that separates social liberties from
economic opinion. (Note: "political compass" is a term popularized by the web site
of that same name. GoToQuiz.com has no affiliation with the political
compass web site). We will also show you what type of foreign policy you support,
and how liberal or conservative you rank in the culture war.

To discover your political labels, there are two pages of statements
for you to respond to. Specify
how much you agree or disagree with each. You may also specify how much each
statement "matters" to you relative to the others (that is to say, just because you strongly agree with
something does not mean it matters greatly to you). We'll find where you stand
on the political spectrum as soon as you respond to each, starting below.

In nearly every instance, the free market allocates resources most efficiently.
